How to build a Wireless Network between home and farm using tp-link products?
In occident countries, some families own a farm. On the farm wireless terminals like smartphones or IP cameras need internet access. To expand internet access from home to the farm far away, tp-link provides a solution to this scenario by using Pharos series products.
What are the basic needs of the wireless network between home and farm?
Normally, a wireless network between home and farm should meet the following needs:
- Requirements for long distances data transmission and high signal strength.
- Device should have protection from harsh outdoor environment, with lightning protection and waterproof design.
- Device should support PoE power supply, flexible for outdoor deployment.
- Convenient in maintenance; with tools for central management, configuration, and real-time monitoring.
What kind of solution can meet the needs of the wireless network between home and farm?
Here we provide a full solution including the network topology, product features and parameters.

What are the highlights of this solution?
This solution adopts TP-LINK Pharos CPE for long distances transmission deployment and Pharos Control Utility to centrally manage all devices.
- High Durability
CPE is designed with outdoor stabilized enclosure with IP (Ingress Protection) waterproof certification, supporting Lightning Protection and ESD Protection.
- High Availability
300Mbps 2.4GHz/5GHz wireless, working with dual-polarized directional MIMO antenna. Designed for long distances outdoor WLAN deployment.
- Long Distances Data Transmission
CPE is specifically designed for long distances outdoor data transmission, and multiple product models are available for different distance requirement from 5km~20km+.
- High Reliability
tp-link Pharos MAXtream TDMA (Time-Division-Multiple-Access) technology improves product performance in throughput, capacity and latency performance
- Flexibility in Deployment
Passive PoE Adapter supports up to 60-meter-long (200 feet) Power over Ethernet deployment and allows the device to be reset remotely. Particular PoE Passthrough function allows ETH1 port to provide extra power supply for other devices.
- Powerful Functions
PharOS web which is based on UI management system provides a powerful software function and multiple operation modes (AP, AP Client, Bridge, Repeater, AP Client Router and AP Router), as well as useful tools (spectrum analysis and transmit power adjustment). All device status such as system resource status, signal quality, transmit status, throughput, wireless client status, etc. can be monitored through PharOS in real-time.
- Convenient Management
Pharos Control is a software for central management and is used to control all tp-link CPE and WBS products. It has powerful management tools including device discovery, status monitoring, batch software update, scheduled mission, warning email, etc. Also, Pharos Control supports efficient management in large scale outdoor wireless deployment.

Just curious, if I build a point to point like the home to farm model, does the AP still provide wi-fi coverage for the immediate area or does it become exclusive to the AP/Client relationship?
Did Keith ever receive a response?
Well anyway here's my question:
I have set up 2x cpe210 very similarly to the scenario above. 1 cpe210 connect to the router in the main house as AP and the other in client mode ion a nearby barn.
I would like some advice on a router than I can connect to the client cpe210 to provide wireless access for around 5 devices for workers in the barn? At the moment I have my laptop connected via an ethernet cable.
hopefully.....
Even I am facing the same problem with my Laptop. I am unable to link my Wireless connection from my ground floor to the third floor in the same building. I have gone through many websites to make my Laptop connected with a wireless connection.

I have a metal building 50 meters from my home network to which I would like to connect wirelessly. I have identified the CPE210 as a suitable client, but what do I use to connect to it from the home network? Andother CPE210? -Mike
Thank you for providing the information about TP-LINK's solution for expanding internet access from Home to the farm using Pharos series products. The features and parameters of different models of CPE have been well explained, and it seems that choosing the appropriate CPE depends on the needs and requirements of the user. The solution's high durability, high availability, and high reliability are impressive, and the Pharos Control Utility for central management and real-time monitoring appears to be a convenient feature.
It's interesting to see how tp-link offers a solution to expand internet access from Stay home to the farm using Pharos series products. The requirements for the wireless network between home and farm are long distances data transmission and high signal strength, protection from harsh outdoor environment, PoE power supply, and convenient maintenance. I think the full solution with TP-LINK Pharos CPE and Pharos Control Utility seems reliable and flexible in deployment. It's also helpful to know the different product models available for different distance requirements.
